All Saints Church, West Harling

All Saints Church combines flint, stone, and brick construction with a prominent west tower divided into two stages supported by decorated buttresses.

The church foundation dates to 1254, with substantial modifications in 1733, additional changes in 1756, and a complete restoration in 1902.

The reredos displays 16th-century Flemish panels depicting scenes from Christ's life, surrounded by an oak frame and complemented by medieval stained glass.

The church opens daily from 10 AM to 4 PM, requiring visitors to walk through fields and descend stairs to enter the unheated building.

Located at the edge of Thetford Forest, the church contains memorial brasses from the 15th century commemorating the Berdewell family and Ralph Folloflove.
